What an incredible summer! Over six weeks, nearly 1,700 students from Arlington and neighboring towns brought creativity, laughter, and energy to Arlington High. From arts and cooking to sports and field trips, every day was a chance to try something new and make memories. Over one-quarter of all APS K–12 students took at least one SummerFun class—a true community celebration of learning and fun. Take a look back at just some of the fun in this SummerFun video, featuring a soundtrack created by our very own AHS tech support specialist, Francis Dabera.
